THAT HE BATTERED A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER. RIGHT NOW DRUG AGENTS WITH THE D.E.A. AND ORANGE COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE ARE WORKING ON A DRUG BUST THAT'S HAPPENING AT A TRAILER PARK IN EAST ORANGE COUNTY. THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE SAYS THE DRUG RING WAS DEALING IN HEROIN, COCAINE, AND MARIJUANA. THAT BRIEFING ENDED JUST A FEW MINUTES AGO. WESH 2'S MICHELLE MEREDITH IS LIVE. Reporter: WE'RE ACROSS THE STREET FROM LAKE DOWNEY TRAILER PARK THAT IS IN EAST ORANGE COUNTY. I WILL STEP OUT OF THE WAY HERE BECAUSE THIS IS STILL VERY MUCH AN ACTIVE SCENE THEY HAVE THE ROADBLOCKED UP HERE. THEY JUST TOOK ANOTHER PERSON AWAY LAW ENFORCEMENT SAYS THIS DRUG RING IS BASED OUT OF PUERTO RICO AND IT SPECIALIZED IN THREE DRUGS, HEROIN, COCAINE, AND MARIJUANA. AGENTS FROM THE NARCOTICS UNIT WITH THE ORANGE COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE AND D.E.A. HAVE BEEN WORKING THIS INVESTIGATION FOR EIGHT MONTHS AND IT WAS ESPECIALLY DISTURBING BECAUSE THE DRUG RING WAS OPERATING WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE ON TO LAKE DOWNEY ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. THE SHERIFF SAID THE SCENE WAS SO FRESH THAT AGENTS FOUND DRUG ADDICTS WITH NEEDLES IN THEIR ARMS. THIS IS A VERY STRUCTURED ORGANIZATION HERE. THEY WERE MOVING APPROXIMATELY 2,000 SMALL PACKETS OF HEROIN A DAY. THAT KIND OF MOVEMENT WILL GENERATE UP TO 10,000 DOLLARS A DAY. THE FINANCIAL PART OF THE INVESTIGATION IS ONGOING AND WILL CONTINUE. WE BELIEVE A LARGE PORTION OF THE PROCEEDS ARE BEING REMITTED BACK TO ORGANIZATIONAL HEADS IN PUERTO RICO. NOW FOR SAFETY REASONS EXTRA DEPUTIES HAVE BOON STAGED AT THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL DURING THIS RAID. SO FAR, ABOUT 14 ARRESTS HAVE BEEN MADE AND THEY'VE SERVED SEARCH WARRANTS ON FOUR TRAILERS BUT THAT NUMBER KEEPS GOING UP BECAUSE THEY CONTINUE TO TAKE PEOPLE OUT.
